SAS and IBM Cognos

The Statistical Analysis System (SAS) programs consist of two steps, the DATA step and the PROC step. The DATA step reads data and prepares it for use by subsequent DATA or PROC steps. A SAS procedure (PROC) is a collection of statements that execute a certain task. SAS procedures have their own statements and commands, but many are shared among procedures. JMP is the graphical user interface for SAS, and is used in applications such as Six Sigma, quality control and engineering, design of experiments and scientific research.
